CIOB\u2019s previous estimation of its own social value was in 2022 when it was found to be \u00a32.84, however the calculation then was not as detailed and didn\u2019t include CIOB\u2019s work at a regional level.<\/p>\n<p>Saul Townsend, Head of content and communications at CIOB, said: \u201cSocial value is becoming increasingly significant across the construction sector and more widely, particularly in procurement processes, and it\u2019s a subject we encourage our members to embrace.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt epitomises our own CIOB values of professionalism, integrity, respect and excellence so, with this in mind, we felt it important to lead by example and measure our own social value, and we\u2019re proud of the results.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The CIOB report reveals in 2022 more than half a million visits were made to the academy website, while over 11,500 of its continued professional development (CPD) packages were accessed. It shows the CIOB Assist programme supported 484 people last year compared with 290 in 2021.<\/p>\n<p>In April this year CIOB released a guide on social value for construction SME\u2019s to help them get to grips with how to deliver, measure and communicate social value, which has been downloaded around 350 times to date.<\/p>\n<p>Access the full report at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ciob.me\/socialvaluereport\">https:\/\/ciob.me\/socialvaluereport<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ciob.org\/news\/ciob-reports-on-its-own-social-value-%E2%80%98proud-to-lead-by-example%E2%80%99%C2%A0#:~:text=The%20findings%20show%20for%20every,Assist%20programme%20which%20provides%20help\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more&#8230;.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new report from the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB), which highlights the organisation\u2019s own social value, has been published.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-37911","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sector-newsblog"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37911","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=37911"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37911\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":37913,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37911\/revisions\/37913"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=37911"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=37911"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=37911"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
